- Spence bought a big boy toy! A 6X6 5-ton military truck with a dump bed! Bought it up in Minnesota and drove it back 4 hours. It's a 1979, 5-speed with 5 low gears, and 5 high gears. The plan is to use it for Farm Clean-ups and a couple other projects he has coming up.
Also thanks to anyone who came out to the Farm Progress Show! We had a blast and met a lot of awesome people. I thought we ordered enough t-shirts, but we gave them away all in the first hour of the show. There were a lot more people than I was expecting- crazy!
Instagram- www.instagram....
You guys should come to the Sunbelt Ag Expo in Moultrie, GA in October!
Grant, that would make a great truck to pull your grain wagons to the grain elevator during harvest, you could even put grain in the dump bed!!
That’s true man
Not really those gravity waggons are not made to go that fast
@@kelvinkufley829 just pull them slow
@@kelvinkufley829 Go slow and it frees up his only tractor
Seen my boy nick Welker for a second
Went to the show, met Spencer and talked to him for a few minutes. Was hoping to talk to you for a bit, but it looked like you were busy with others at the time.
A stunning woman that can drive a truck-- put a ring on it!!!!!
Did you figure out how to turn off pto? I recently bought one and pto is always on?? I'm trying to get it off
Well done Spence, been putting in that work on the farm, strength coming in strong 💪🏻
Is he going to yous it to haul Grain this fall
Bro is playing FS irl
That looks awesome grant love your content been here since 2017, love to meet you one day
spectacular spencer is back yay I'm so happy truck looks awesome love you grant and spenc keep this stuff going and he said holy biscuits yay 10:25. Also buch and Garrett are so awesome as well they really elevate the content behind the scenes They need more shoutouts. I got emotionally happy when they were in this vlog Love them
Do not charge the 24 volt System with 12 volt charger you have to remove all the battery cables that jump from negative to positive
I have never seen buch before and he was not what i expected he looked like but thanks for the face reveal buch lol
What a cool truck. Thanks for sharing.
This video put such a massive smile on my face lads, from hearing you narrate the most engaging farm sim videos to seeing you do it in real life is so fricken awesome man. Spencer seems so stoked with his truck and is clearly a natural at driving manual! Given me inspiration to get out there and try learn myself, thanks homie.
You're actually a legend Grant, both of you are, but man, so impressed with your grind. You're clearly an incredibly hard working man with either a god gifted business acumen or more likely; you just worked really hard and studied the greats on how to do it. Super impressed man.
Keep inspiring us!! Much love from little old New Zealand, hope the SquadBuilt showcase went/goes well!! Game is looking great, seems perfectly marketed towards actual farmers being able to play a bit when they're on the old autosteer 😅
edit: wrote this at like 3 mins in, seeing and hearing Buch irl was a blessing at the end there.. and Spencers lesson on driving the truck, what an excellent teacher! Your lady did so well! All of you guys rock!!! Maybe if you played less farm sim you would have super strength 🤣🤣
True
Top dog right here, pin this comment
You can use the truck for grain if you make a back for it
Alright Grant, I did some quick research and got some results. Spencer truck is 1979 M817 dump truck (part of the M809 series). It’s got a 14 L Cummins NHC-250 naturally aspirated diesel that cranks out 250 horse @2100 rpm and 658 ft lbs of torque @1500 rpm.
You and your brother should make hunting vids
He bought a military truck?!
Be glad you have those seats, they are a lot nicer than the ones that were originally in them just about 3 inches of foam covered in canvas and not much legroom in those cabs either. I had a license for a M923 and drove it all over Saudi Arabia back in 1990/91.
you should get a new tractor and some cattle
Spencer, 10 out of 10 on a coolness scale.
I learned to drive stick in a 1948 Dodge weapons carrier in 1965 that needed to be double-clutched but a similar experience to learning to shift as you guys had...fun! That 6-by will come in handy. I would look for a low-boy trailer the 6-by can carry the excavator on next. You could also haul grain carts with it, too.
Excellent idea. Pintle hitch trailers seem to go reasonable
Maybe in the future you can get semi
That is so cool!!!!!
U got the coolest farm truck ever tho🤩🤩
cool
new grain hauler ? :)
OH MY GOD you guys should haul gravity wagons with that in the fall
Only if they put a little bit of something in the bed
Are you gonna use the dump truck at all to take grain into the elevator?
I thought the same thing when I seen it
It has no back it won't hold grain😑
@@GriswoldFarms oh that’s right, maybe they’ll get one🤷
Was that a chrome tip on the f250 I saw there😏
The new daily?!!!😂😂
Are you going to hall grain in the army truck
Jeez spens you ok
Try shifting without the clutch. Should only need to use the clutch on takeoff.
You could use it as a grain truck lol
Man you guys are really living my dream
Nice
Spence, most trucks shift easier if you double clutch. It seems to give the motor time to slowdown to easier shift the gears. Takes practice. Google double clutch shifting.
So this was the truck that Buch posted lmao
How do you transport that big excavator... The truck is nice addition spece..
The only time need a clutch is starting and stopping. Otherwise shift between 1500-1700 rpm. Definitely will save a lot on the clutch. Have fun with the new toy.
If she is driving. The seat needs to be changed. (Likely not possible) but blocks can be attached to pedals to make it better. I would suggest not extending bed to max height every time. Go high enough to dump, not to stops. I admit the 45 degree extension likely made loading easier. Can the skid loader reach now?
this is a cool truck i hope it sees a lot of use around the farm
The black stripe 66 internationals are 76, the only year of the black stripe
It would be ne’er if you make it so you can haul grain for harvest
Saw that truck and a wagon at the elevator Saturday LOL. You guys running Corn in the dump bed and wagon to town?
The second I seen the three of yee lift the golf buggy into the 250 what came to my mind immediately was Hernias all round😂😂Great videos Grant and Spencer can't wait for harvest
The guy with the tan hat I got the same sunglasses other then my trim was black
Nice truck you guys are getting a lot of use out of it .It just kills me though Younger people never drove a stick shift shows my age we're all brought up on stick shift it was something new to get an automatic transmission but you guys are doing fine be safe.
We’ve got one of those with duals and a fifth wheel. It’ll pull a loaded hay trailer through any condition. We broke an airline on the trailer and it locked up the breaks on the trailer while we were loaded and we drug it 2 miles across pastures in a foot of snow.
Wouldn't that driver seat move forward for your gal??
Congratulations on your military dump truck Spencer
Don't rest your hand on the stick and the clutch don't rest your foot on that either it wears out the gears and the clutch i leard from experience i drove truck for 10 years
There are manuals online for your new truck. If you get a proper hitch made for your 5 ton it will haul grain wagons for you! FYI that truck is 5 ton rated off road at operating speeds. Meaning the capacity is much higher. Enjoy gentlemen!
The 5ton is rated by if you put a 5ton cylinder straight up over the rear axles and drive at speed off road don't remember what the speed was to qualify for it
Once u dump and the bed starts coming down put the dump lever all the way back and the bed will continue to go down and you can start moving slowly till it gets half way down then u can speed up a little the high low on the transfer case use low when you are loaded and it is soft and over rough terrain use 2nd to start out on the flat and empty we used low side when ever hauling off road we moved lots of stuff with them trucks while I was in the national guard for 24yrs and I worked on them also
The stick that Spencer tripped on, is not OSHA compliant.
Floating is hard to get on to maybe try dubble clutching your trans will like you much better
Congrats on the purchase can’t wait to see you buy for semi someday
Kids can't drive a stick! My sister was driving a stick when she was 14!
I don’t know what spencer was on but he was falling down quite a bit 😂
when is the exact release date for your new game coming out???
You should haul grain in that dump truck this fall.
You should get buch to your farm and show the military truck
again how many stuff you after buy you should save up for other things
Hi asome truck can’t wait to see what come in the farm next
When are you gonna post a video for harvest? I hope it’s all goin well
You can fab yo box sides and use it for corn and beans in the fall and to haul your grain to the co-op
Fancy
Smoking a little bit the link belt? I hope it was just cold.
Spencer! You’re an ox! Great video Grant!
you might think about trading your truck that was out in the river for a skid steer
Is that cole the cornstar who your arm wrestling.
You can wheld right you can weld it back on
and fun fats he buy three cars this truck and his other truck and a thing
My dream is to have a little farmer like you
FYI do you thing you could hall grain with it
There is a bot trying to take peoples information.
Aaahahahah beavis and butthead I love those guys
nice
i have a WWII deuce and a half and its nice but one of these is next level
Put a door on the back and haul grain to the elevator with it
I didn't know that was buch, it's cool that y'all were able to have all of the guys out at the presentation.
Austin farmer was there too
When is buck? going to go to the farm
Looks great rolling coal and it’s looks a great farm truck.
It was great to put a face to buch
Double clutch it! It’ll work better
Oh sorry I didn't watch the rest first
Put sides on the truck and use it for your farm
Time to learn to double clutch
Hope this is constructive but like one guy said you can float them gears if you time it right, also try letting off the clutch super slow, you want to let it out til it’s about to bite and then give it just a tiny amount of gas then let the clutch out slow the rest of the way, just like taking off slow on a dirtbike, and something I have a bad habit of and want to save y’all is keeping my hand on the shifter especially in a pickup you want to hold onto it as little as possible or so I am told. Super cool guys
U can usually float everything except from 1st to second entry start in 2nd
he should have bought another tractor
That truck is so cool
Cole got his behind wiped oh my gosh!
I'm in FFA BUT IN THE SALUDA SC FFA
Bring back Sunday Funday
I can’t believe they got a cart in the bed
You an use it as a grain truck just got to but a gate on the back
I drove a Deuce and a half (yeah, I know, it wasn't a five ton like yours) across Iraq in 2003. Couldn't walk straight for a week afterwards. I do love the whistle of the turbo from these trucks.
No turbo on this M817. Naturally aspirated Cummins NH250.

Sweet truck fellas! Keep up the good work!
So that's Rental Man Buch
